Not only can you do cross-browser, but you can set up profiles for different computers (Work/Home/Custom) and determine which bookmarks/folders go with each profile. This can help you choose if you want specific bookmarks to be at home, or if you want to leave them at work.

In addition, you can sync Passwords, or Open Tabs on each computer, but only if you want to, of course.

As a common sense, make sure to turn off bookmarks sync in both Chrome & Firefox on all machines prior to using Xmarks. It is truly a nightmare when all three bookmarks sync service are fighting, duplicating exponentially bookmarks across 14+ browsers among 6 or 7 boxes.

There is no actual way to sync your bookmarks through different web browsers without using one of those services (like Xmarks, EverSync or Delicious, for example) that require you to create an account. And the problem with that is that it might lead your browser to create several copies of your bookmarks, making a REAL mess, as Antony said.

Of those 3, I presonally recommend EverSync, as you can freely use it on your phone as well, but there are many more similar services, most of them with the same multisyncing issue.

I am using Firefox Sync because I use Firefox as my primary browser, but Firefox Sync completely messes up my bookmarks, creating duplicates each time I log on to one of my computer. Seems to work only for a single-computer setup, which is quite outdated nowadays.

Xmarks has been discontinued since months. Last time I tried it because the website came back online I don't know why, the server wasn't responding at all.

Manually importing bookmarks works, AGAIN, for a single-computer setup. But I will never always think about saving my bookmarks when I leave one computer, copy that somewhere (e.g., Dropbox), and restoring when logging on another computer.

It seems that the only way is now to bypass the browser's bookmarks and setup a web server with an HTML page with links, and update the page manually to add bookmarks, or get rid of all computers except one in order to use some bookmark-syncing options above.

The webserver solution does not actually require a webserver, though. Just create a simple html-file and open it in your browser, possibly synced through Dropbox or SpiderOak.
